AV integrators who quote complex systems fast
Multi-room AV systems, complex BOMs and long project cycles require more than a spreadsheet. Zigaflow gives AV integrators the quoting, procurement and project management tools to deliver more projects profitably.
The complete operations platform for AV system integrators
AV system integration projects are technically complex and operationally demanding. A single installation can involve hundreds of line items, multiple specialist subcontractors and a commissioning process that drags on for weeks.
Zigaflow connects your sales process, procurement, project delivery and invoicing so your team always knows where every project stands.
- UK AV integrators typically employ 5 to 50 staff and turn over between £500k and £5m annually.
- Projects range from single-room installs to multi-site corporate deployments, often running concurrently.
- Bill of materials complexity is high, with quotes commonly containing 50 to 200 individual line items.
- Supply chain delays from distributors like Midwich and Stampede frequently disrupt project timelines.
- Many integrators still manage quotes in Excel and projects in email, causing costly version-control errors.
Up and running in four simple steps
Client Enquiry and Scoping
Enquiries arrive via direct client contact, architects, consultants, or tender portals such as Contracts Finder. Site survey notes, system requirements, and client briefing documents are captured and linked to a single opportunity record.
System Design and Quoting
Engineers build detailed bills of materials covering displays, processors, cabling, rack equipment, and labour, with supplier costs pulled from distributor price lists. Branded proposals are generated and sent to clients for approval, with revision tracking across multiple quote versions.
Project Delivery and Installation
On approval, purchase orders are raised to distributors and subcontractors, and equipment deliveries are tracked against the project schedule. Install stages, commissioning milestones, and snag lists are managed so field engineers and project managers stay aligned.
Invoicing and Accounts Sync
Invoices are raised against agreed payment schedules, which commonly include deposit, delivery, and sign-off stages tied to project completion. Invoice data syncs automatically to accounting platforms such as Xero or QuickBooks, with outstanding balances visible against each project.

Built specifically for your industry - Zigaflow tackles the operational headaches that generic software ignores.
BOM-based quotes take days to build
Detailed AV system quotes require exact product specifications, quantities and installation costs. Building these from scratch for every project is a significant time investment that delays proposals.
Zigaflow quote templates with your standard system components let you build complex BOM quotes in hours rather than days. Product libraries keep specifications consistent.
